Original request: Add “Potted Plants” value/filter under Appropriate Location Field, and make it link to 7 checked filters (more on that)

I don't see other descriptions related to potted plants in the Word documents and will need to follow up with Peter to confirm which seven items he'd like to use. At the moment, the filter will return non-null records for the option potted plants. This is probably not the intended result set.

Chamaerops humilis (ID number 853) has value "Palm" in Plant Type though it is not used.

Magnolia virginiana (ID number 687) has value "Tree" only and does not specify which type (deciduous or evergreen). Can it be both?

Renamed values for upper and lower case consistency in all attributes. Republish required.

Eriodictyon californicum (ID number 1097) is labeled "Chaparral;Foothill Woodland;Yellow Pine Forest;Northern Oak Woodland;Mixed Evergreen Forest;Redwood Forest" and inconsistent with currently available plant communities list. May need to be re-categorized.

Ulmus parvifolia 'Drake', 'Sempervirens' (ID number 610) is labeled "Exotic" and inconsistent with currently available plant communities list (probably duplicated for Climate Appropriate Plants attribute) need to confirm with Peter for correction.

Changed all references of "Backyard" to "Garden" in Appropriate Location for consistency with filters.

PaulaChiu commented 7 years ago

Changed value of "All" to "Clay;Loam;Sand;Rock" in Soil Type since filters rely on each checkbox (i.e. there is no "all" filter at the moment). Changed value of "None" to null.

Not sure which values are needed for "Many".

Check with Peter about "Other" in Climate Appropriate Plants. Inconsistent with existing categories.
